Softball registration for the 2009 season is now!
Dear Softball players,
It’s hard to believe, but the 2009 softball season is rapidly approaching. Priority registration will run from January 10, 2009 through February 10, 2009, meaning if you paid to play in 2008 you have first priority to play in 2009. Once priority registration ends we will open up registration to all members of the J. Remember – you MUST be a member (regular member or program member) of the JCC to register for softball. If you have any questions regarding membership requirements please call Mike Creemer at the J.
Warm Regards,
Mike Rothstein
Commissioner
